What's the meanest trick you ever did to a buddys car ?

Back in the old days I had this,,, I hate to say friend, because we were always busting each others chops, but during the year that I lost my license for drag racing, he would pick me up when he saw me hitchhiking, and take me here and there. He drove an old VW beetle that did not have a gas guage, just a petcock under the dash that you would put on reserve when you ran out of gas,,, just like a bike. One night he was really giving me a bad time while going down the road, so I just reached under the dash and put him on reserve,,, when he ran out of gas he was out of gas. I did that to him 3 times before he figured it out. He really did have it coming.

I put one of those 3 foot long strap ties on the driveshaft of a buddys car. He started it up, but it in drive and.....


Thwack, Thwack, Thwack for about 30 minutes before it started to really piss him off, and he got under his car and cut it off.

Shaving cream can in dry ice. Freeze it solid. Cut the top off and drop it in a sunroof or open window on a nice warm summer day. The results are spectacular.

A friend, who raised hogs at the time, once found a very thin strand of copper on his driver's seat. When he tracked it down, it grew insulation and went to the ignition coil.
When he found out which friend gave him that gift, he filled the friend's washer bottle with some boar urine that he had kept in a milk carton in the sun for a while.

I don't treat my friends this way, but:

Get some brass tire valve caps with rubber seals in them. Remove the valve core and quickly screw a brass cap on it. Loads of fun the next time he checks his tire pressure.

If he doesn't have remote entry, super glue does wonders for his door and trunk locks.

Butyric acid in the cowl vents. Smells like a yak vomited in the car. Only way to totally cure it is to replace the car.

One time, while hanging out at the local biker shop one of the guys put a paper matchbook cover in between the points on my VW beetle. During bike week in 1988 a bunch of drunk bikers picked up the back of my VW at a light and held the rear wheels off the ground, this was after they almost tipped the bug over by rocking it back and forth. They laughed so hard that tears were coming out of thier eyes. The next day, while driving back home I passed a couple(man/woman) next to a broken shovelhead. They needed a book of matches to help clean up the fouled points. Turns out the lady at the store a few miles back had given me two books of matches(remember that?) when I bought a pack of Camels. I was still pretty green at the time and turned her down when the girl opened a silver cigarette case and offered me one of the biggest joints I have ever seen in life as "one for the road".

I switched the spark plug wires on a buddys truck once when he was pretty drunk. He came unglued. I will never touch another persons vehicle again.
